1Bymentioning"thesametimecrunch"（Line1,Para.2）SandraHofferthmeans

A、childrenhavelittletimetoplaywiththeirparents

B、childrenarenottakengoodcareofbytheirworkingparents

C、bothparentsandchildrensufferfromlackofleisuretime

D、bothparentsandchildrenhavetroublemanagingtheirlime

標準答案：C

知識點解析：語義理解題。該短語所在句子的上文（第1段最后一句）表明“孩子的

課余時間比以前少了”，而本句則指出父母和孩子都受timecrunch的影響，可見

thesametimecrunch是指空閑時間不夠用，故C正確。

2、Accordingtotheauthor,thereasongivenbySandraHofferthforthetimecrunchis

A、quiteconvincing

partiallytrue

C、totallygroundless

D、ratherconfusing

標準答案：B

知識點解析：觀點態(tài)度題。第2段第2句中括號里的內(nèi)容表明了作者的觀點。轉(zhuǎn)折

詞Nevertheless說明作者的觀點跟上文SandraHofferth的看法不完全一致，而作者

在下文舉例中提到，單身母親因為要上班，與孩子在一起的時間只有9個小時，確

實少了很多，這與Hofferth所述一致，因此選B。

3、Accordingtotheauthorachilddevelopsbetterif

A、hehasplentyoftimereadingandstudying

B、heislefttoplaywithhispeersinhisownway

C^hehasmoretimeparticipatinginschoolactivities

D^heisfreetointeractwithhisworkingparents

標準答案：B

知識點解析：事實細節(jié)題。第3段最后一句表明孩子自由玩樂能促使他們獨立思

考，并使他們學(xué)會處理與同齡人的關(guān)系，其中unstructuredplay相當(dāng)于B中的play

inhisownway?故B正確。

4、TheauthorisconcernedaboutthefactthatAmericankids,

A、arcengagedinmoreandmorestructuredactivities

B、areincreasinglyneglectedbytheirworkingmothers

C^arespendingmoreandmoretimewatchingTV

D、arcinvolvedlessandlessinhouseholdwork

標準答案：A

知識點解析：觀點態(tài)度題。文章一開頭作者就說孩子們比1981年時上學(xué)的時間每

周多8小時，他們還做更多的家務(wù)，參加更多的有組織性的活動等等，而這些均是

造成孩子們空閑時間越來越少的原因，而孩子們空閑時間少也正是作者憂慮的問

題，故用推知本題選A。B是作者在第2段括號里反駁過的觀點；C錯在moreand

moretime,而且作者對孩子看電視也不完全反對；孩子們事實上要做更多家務(wù)，

故D錯。

5、Wecaninferfromthepassagethat

A、extracurricularactivitiespromotechildren'sintelligence

B、mostchildrenwillturntoreadingwithTVsetsswitchedoff

C^effortstogetkidsinterestedinreadinghavebeenfruitful

D、mostparentsbelievereadingtobebeneficialtochildren

標準答案：D

知識點解析：推理判斷題。文章最后一段倒數(shù)第2句說“盡管父母費盡心思培養(yǎng)孩

子的讀書興趣，可孩子們一周也只不過花一個多小時讀書由此可見，父母認為

讀書對孩子有好處，即D。A中的extracurricularactivities包含structuredand

unstructuredactivities,文中只說unstructuredactivities有助于培養(yǎng)孩子獨立思考以

及與同齡人交往的能力，沒有說slrucluredaclivilies對inlelligence有什么幫助；B

與文章的倒數(shù)第3句不符；C與倒數(shù)第2句不符。

6、Theword"repulsive"（Line3,Para.l）mostprobablymeans"

A、disgusting

B、pleasant

C^acceptable

D、delicious

標準答案：A

知識點解析：詞義推斷題。解答本題的關(guān)鍵首先要理解repulsive前面的it是指上

一句的octopus,由Oniheotherhand可知第2句和第3句描述的是人們對章魚作為

食物的兩種相反的反應(yīng)，而與agrealdelicacy相反的是A,故A為正確答案。

7、Wecaninferfromthesecondparagraphthatwhencollectingthesnails,the

author.

A^wasgladthathecouldsharethemwithhisfriend

B、wasangrybecausetheymightdamagehisbelovedplants

C、wasexcitedaboutbeingabletogivehisfriendasurprise

D、wasdepressedbecauseitwashardtoextinguishthemall

標準答案：B'

知識點解析：推理判斷題。在第2段中查找到作者有一天在陣雨后散步發(fā)現(xiàn)蝸牛爬

在他那些prizeplants上面，所以才突然有了去抓蝸牛的沖動。理解prize在此意為

“一流的，珍視的“，便可知作者當(dāng)時很生氣，由此可確定答案為B。

8、Theauthorfindsthatsnails.

A^areasdeliciousasoctopus

B、aredislikedinhishometown

C、arethemostcontroversialfood

D^areaspopularasfriedpotatoes

標準答案：C

知識點解析：事實細節(jié)題。本題考查復(fù)合句的理解。第2段第1句“No

creature…more…thansnails”表達的是最高級概念，即:Snailshavereceivedmost

praiseandabuse.由此可知，蝸牛是最具爭議性的食物，因此C就是該句的近義替

換。作者沒有把蝸牛與章魚或炸土豆作比較，因此A和D不對：文中提到在朋友

的居住地，蝸牛是沒人睚得上的，但沒有提到在作者的家鄉(xiāng)是否受歡迎，因此B

也不對。

9、Thebesttitleofthispassagemightbe"

A^OneMan'sMeatisAnotherMan'sPoison

B、FoodsandCultures

C、SnailandOctopus

D、PeopleArcIllogicalinFrontofDelicacies

標準答案：A

知識點解析：主旨大意題。文章第1句話其實是全文的主題句，說明人們對于選擇

吃什么、不吃什么是沒有什么章法的，暗示了人們在飲食方面有大相徑庭的喜好，

接著用了數(shù)個具體例子說明，并著重以蝸牛為例，闡明這種差異。英語習(xí)語"One

man'smeatisanotherman'spoison”形象地表達了這一觀點。本題最具干擾性的是

B,文章在第1段談到飲食有差異，這涉及到了culture,但作者并沒花太多筆墨描

述各國不同的文化，因此，culture并非本文的中心。另外，D的表達與文章第1句

很相似，但是D說的是人們在美食面前會喪失理智，與第1句的意思其實相差甚

遠，且并非文章要闡明的主題。

10、Asindicatedinthepassage,peoplelovedifferentfoodsmainlybecause.

A^theyliveindifferentplaces

B、theylearntocatcertainfoodsintheirfamilies

C、theyhavedifferentunderstandingsofdelicacy

D^theyaretooillogicaltoexplain

標準答案：B

知識點解析：推理判斷題。本題考查表語從句的理解。從第1段的最后一句中的

“mostofushavebeenbroughtuptoeatcertainfoods”可推斷B為不同的人喜好不同食

物的最主要原因。A最具干擾性，它也是原因之一，但住在同一個地方的人也會有

不同的飲食差異，所以還是因為家庭的原因所造成的。

II、Itisindicatedinthepassagethatcompetitionbetweenschoolsresultsin.

A、higherenrollmentrale

B、loweracademicstandard

C、highermarketingexpenses

D、privatizationoffurthereducation

標準答案：C

知識點解析：第2段最后一句與第2段第1句構(gòu)成隱含的因果關(guān)系，原因是學(xué)校之

間競爭激烈，結(jié)果是學(xué)校花費人力物力以求在競爭中取勝，如高薪委任市場經(jīng)理。

由此可知C正確。

12、Realcompetitioncanhappenonlywhen.

A、academicstandardisimprovedbytheeducationsector

B、therearecomparableschoolswithdifferenteducationalqualities

C>studentshavedifferentinterestsindifferentcourses

D、schoolsofallareashavesufficientbudgetfortheirdevelopment

標準答案：B

知識點解析：只要理解第3段最后一個分句中的that指向前一個分句，答案不難找

到。B是對該分句的近義改寫。

13^Accordingtothepassage,thefreemarketinsecondaryeducation.

A、onlyprovidesconsumerswithmoreinformation

B、ismorecompetitivethanthehighereducationmarket

C、meanstherewillbemoreintensivecompetitionthanincolleges

D、isarealsurprisetoBritain'srecentgovernment

標準答案：A

知識點解析：第3段admittedly（不可否認地）之后一句指出了消費者得到了更多的

信息，A與此相符。文中只是分別介紹高等教育及中等教育的競爭情況，但沒有做

橫向?qū)Ρ?，因此B和C沒有原文依據(jù)。D與該段第1句相悖。

14、Theauthorofthepassagefeelsrelievedthat.

A、secondaryschoolshavetomarketthemselves

B、mostsecondaryschoolshavescarceresourcesofstaffandmoney

C>theresearchprovesmostsecondaryschoolsarethebest

D、schoolsneedn'tprovethattheyarethebest

標準答案：D

知識點解析：解答本題的關(guān)鍵是理解倒數(shù)第2段最后一句中that的具體所指：that

代指上句破折號后的做法。

15、Whatmightbetheauthor'sattitudetowardscompetitionsbetweennearbyschools?

A、Theauthorisinfavorofvariouskindsofcompetition.

B、Theauthorisindifferenttoanycompetitionanditsresult.

C、Theauthorisnotcertainoftheeffectofcompetitions.

D、Theauthorisagainstinter-collegiatecompetitions.

標準答案：D

知識點解析：根據(jù)最后一段，特別是最后一句的notincompetingandmarketing,

可知作者對競爭的態(tài)度是反對的。

16、Thereareabout260millionpeoplewhocanspeak.

A、Englishinitsregionalvariety

B、Englishinitsstandardvariety

C、Englishasasecondlanguage

D、Englishasaworkinglanguage

標準答案：B

知識點解析：根據(jù)第1段第2、3句，可以推斷在文中提到的七個英語國家里，人

們所說的英語都屬于標準變體，因此B正確。

17、Accordingtothispassage,theEnglishlanguagemightbeused.

A^foronlyonereasonthatEnglishisbecominganinternationallanguage

B、mainlybypeoplefromtheAmericancontinentandtheEuropeancontinent

C、asanofficiallanguageinaninternationalconferenceontheAmericanculture

D^inscienceandtechnologyaswellasinculturalandhistoricalstudiesofallcountries

標準答案：C/

知識點解析：C可以通過文章第1段和第3段的內(nèi)容得出推論。第3段第1句話表

明A是不全面的，第1段第2句表明B是錯誤的，D中關(guān)于culturalandhistorical

studiesofallcountries的信息在文中沒有出現(xiàn)。

18、Theauthorseemstobewondering.

whatmakesupone'sadequateworkingknowledgeofEnglish

B、whyEnglishcanservesomanyneedsofvariouspeople

C、howtorelatethetechnologicalproblemsinairportcommunications

D、whenEnglishbecamesowidelyused

標準答案：A

知識點解析：題目中的wondering是第2段最后一句中difficulltodefineandstill

moredifficult〔oassess的同義轉(zhuǎn)換，所以答案就是原文中的后半句，A中的makes

up與constitutes同義，A為正確答案。

19、"thesecountries"（line7,Para.3）mostprobablyrefersto.

A^thedevelopingcountrieswhichusedtobecolonies

B、theformerBritishcolonieswhichnowaredeveloping

C、thecolonizedcountrieswhichbecomeasstrongasBritain

D、thedevelopingcountrieswhicharestillcolonizedbyBritain

標準答案：B-

知識點解析：these回指第3段倒數(shù)第2句中的developingcountries,especially

formerBritishcolonies,將四個選項與此對比，不難發(fā)現(xiàn)B是該說法的同義替換。

本題稍具干擾性的是A,但該選項前半段正確，后半段錯誤，根據(jù)原文，這些國家

是英國的殖民地，而不是像A所說的任何的殖民地。

20、Acommonlanguageisnecessaryforsomemulti-lingualcountries.

A、forbothinternalandinternationalcommunications

B、foraccesstothedevelopmentinothercountries

C^forhigherefficiencyofthegovernmentandbetterlifeofthepublic

D、forwidercommunicationsamongcolonialnations

標準答案：A

知識點解析：A是對文章最后一句的全面概括，為正確答案。B和C只分別概括了

英語的國際交流作用和國內(nèi)交流作用，而D斷章取義，均不正確。

1、[Cl]

標準答案：O

知識點解析：此處應(yīng)為形容詞或動詞的分詞形式，作is的表語。對比本句與上一

句，可以知道本句表明海外客家人的性格特征更明顯，因此本題答案為

remarkableo

2、[C2]

標準答案：J

知識點解析：此處應(yīng)為形容詞或動詞的分詞形式，與is構(gòu)成本句的謂語。根據(jù)上

下文，rooted最合適。berootedinthecultureofHakkaEarthBuildings意為“扎根于客

家土樓文化中

3、[C3]

標準答案：D

知識點解析：此處應(yīng)為動詞原形。結(jié)合上一句的內(nèi)容，空白處用achieve最合適，

只有團結(jié)起來，客家人才能獲得更多成就。

4、[C4]

標準答案：L

知識點解析：此處應(yīng)為名詞，與design并列作本句的主語。根據(jù)句意，本句的主

語應(yīng)該是關(guān)于客家土樓的設(shè)計和構(gòu)造，因此本題答案應(yīng)為structureo

5、[C5]

標準答案：B

知識點解析:此處應(yīng)為名詞,作improve的賓語。在詞庫中,通常與living搭配的

名詞是standardsolivingstandards意為"生活水平

6、[C6]

標準答案：N

知識點解析：此處應(yīng)為形容詞或動詞的分詞形式，作imeresl的定語。本句提到

interest“利益”是與全家或全村有關(guān)的，因此空白處用shared最合適。

7、[C7]

標準答案：C

知識點解析：此處應(yīng)為形容詞或動詞的分詞形式，作society的定語。本段首先講

到以前客家土樓的功能作用，本句通過But一詞表轉(zhuǎn)折，表明以前的客家土樓不再

適應(yīng)現(xiàn)在的社會需要了，因此空白處應(yīng)為modern。

8、[C8]

標準答案：G

知識點解析：此處應(yīng)為名詞。根據(jù)與空白處搭配的recorded,history等詞，可以推

斷period最合適，可構(gòu)成“記載一段歷史”之義。

9、[C9]

標準答案：H

知識點解析：此處應(yīng)為名詞?？瞻滋幥暗膖ourist表明aitraclion符合句意，tourist

attraction為常用搭配，意為“旅游勝地”。

10、[C10]

標準答案：E

知識點解析：此處應(yīng)為形容詞或動詞的分詞形式，作tradition的定語。本句是對全

文的一個總結(jié)，表明客家文化很特別，因此空白處的單詞應(yīng)表明這個特點，所以本

題答案為uniqueo

II、[Cl]

標準答案：M

知識點解析?：此處應(yīng)為動詞原形，并可與..搭配，根據(jù)該結(jié)構(gòu)中的數(shù)

字，可以判斷此處動詞為rangeorangefromonetothree意為“范圍在一到二之間

12、[C2]

標準答案：J

知識點解析：此處應(yīng)為形容詞。結(jié)合上一句的句意，可以推斷最適合的是common

一詞。

13、[C3]

標準答案：D

知識點解析：此處應(yīng)為名詞。上一句提到了宿舍里具體配備的東西，結(jié)合本句中的

形容詞plainbutadequate,可以推斷本句是對宿舍陳設(shè)的總結(jié),因此furnishings為

本題答案。

14、[C4]

標準答案：C

知識點解析：此處應(yīng)為名詞。從本句中的goodunderstanding和positive

understanding可以推斷空白處的名詞表積極意義，因此只有success適合。本句中

的2是一個介詞，并非構(gòu)成動詞不定式的t。，所以后面要跟名詞success。

15、[C5]

標準答案：L

知識點解析：此處應(yīng)為名詞，與activities并列為learn的賓語。從上下文詞義判

斷，在詞庫中只有schedule最合適。

16、[C6]

標準答案：K

知識點解析：空白處所在句子缺少謂語動詞，由上下文時態(tài)可知，本旬應(yīng)為一般現(xiàn)

在時，且主語為第三人制單數(shù)的It,故空白處應(yīng)填入動詞的第三人稱單數(shù)形式，詞

庫中只有succeeds及depends符合要求。從語義上看，depends能與on搭配，表示

“取決于“，填入文中指“與室友相處的時間長短取決于你和你的室友“，語義通順。

故本題答案為dependso

17、[C7]

標準答案：0

知識點解析?：此處可為形容詞或分詞，作are的表語。下一句是對該句空白處形容

詞的解釋，可見該詞表明室友的誠信度。只有trustworthy適合該詞義。

18、[C8]

標準答案：B

知識點解析：此處應(yīng)為過去分詞，與keep構(gòu)成keepsb.fromdoingsth.的結(jié)構(gòu)。

本句是對上一句的進一步說明，結(jié)合這兩句的語義，以及keepsb.fromdoing

sth.這一結(jié)構(gòu)，可以推斷答案是tempted。

19、[C9]

標準答案：E

知識點解析：此處應(yīng)為不及物動詞，作從句的謂語。在根據(jù)上下文語義，在詞庫中

只有conflict一詞適合。

20、[CIO]

標準答案：G

知識點解析：此處應(yīng)為名詞，并且由謂語are可知該名詞是復(fù)數(shù)。該詞應(yīng)與library

形成對比表地點，在詞庫中只有dormilories最適合。

1、[Cl]

標準答案：M

知識點解析：此處應(yīng)為名詞，該物質(zhì)是薄木制成的。根據(jù)下文aroundLeonardoda

Vincispainting,可知它是指達芬奇這幅名畫的畫板，因此答案為panel。另外下文

第6段再次提到了woodpanel,從中可進一步確定答案。

2、[C2]

標準答案：D

知識點解析：此處應(yīng)為動詞的過去分詞，且是及物動詞，與has構(gòu)成本句的謂語,

賓語是astudy,符合這些條件的只有commissioned,指“委托”別人進行研究。

3、[C3]

標準答案：J

知識點解析：此處應(yīng)為名詞，可與介詞on搭配。上下文表明雖然盧浮宮決定評估

《蒙娜麗莎》受氣候的影響，但該畫仍繼續(xù)展覽，表示“展覽”的只能是。n

displayo

4、[C4]

標準答案：L

知識點解析：此處應(yīng)為副詞，作狀語，修飾謂語is,根據(jù)動詞的時態(tài)可以排除

previously,根據(jù)上下文與此，最合適的是currently,意為“現(xiàn)在，當(dāng)前”。

5、[C5]

標準答案：B

知識點解析：此處應(yīng)為副詞，作狀語，修飾從句謂語。對比句中的比較級greater

than…前后的時態(tài)及語義，可以知道這個副詞應(yīng)該是指先前的研究觀察，因此

previously適合。

6、[C6]

標準答案：K

知識點解析：由前面的will可知此處應(yīng)為動詞原形，并由其后的賓語從句可知是

一個及物動詞，再根據(jù)上下文語義，只有determine一詞合適，表明研究會更好地

確定這幅畫由什么材料陶成。

7、[C7]

標準答案：A

知識點解析：此處應(yīng)為形容詞，修飾sn】ilc。蒙娜麗莎的微笑很明顯應(yīng)該是

mysterious,即神秘的，而不是suspicious（可疑的）。

8、[C8]

標準答案：F

知識點解析：此處應(yīng)為形容詞，修飾changes。根據(jù)上文第3段提到的要評估《蒙

娜麗莎》這幅名畫受氣候變化的影響，可以推斷此處也應(yīng)該是指氣候變化，即

climaticchangeso

9、[C9]

標準答案：H

知識點解析：此處應(yīng)為形容詞或動詞的過去分詞，作room的定語，且可由

specially修飾。上文提到該名畫將放在玻璃后面展出，由此可見，這一句也應(yīng)該表

明該畫作展覽的地方是一個特別裝修的房間，以保護這幅畫，因此只有redecorated

符合詞性及語義的要求。

10、[CIO]

標準答案：o

知識點解析：此處應(yīng)為動詞的過去分詞，與has構(gòu)成句子的謂語，表明從16世紀

開始，這幅畫就一直留在了法國，因此remained是合適的單詞。
